Right now I have

I don't know if I have to install another ubuntu version instead? perhaps focus on laptops...
(note I couldn't find any ubuntu for laptops 64bits)

Have you gone to system>administration>additional drivers to see if you need additional drivers?

You might want to check with the manufacturer to see if they have linux drivers for your malfunctioning items.
